# Associative Containers

## Classes
class | std::map< Key, Type, Compare, Alloc >
| A standard container made up of (key,value) pairs, which can be retrieved based on a key, in logarithmic time. More...

| A standard container made up of (key,value) pairs, which can be retrieved based on a key, in logarithmic time. More...
class | std::multiset< Key, Compare, Alloc >
| A standard container made up of elements, which can be retrieved in logarithmic time. More...
class | std::set< Key, Compare, Alloc >

## Detailed Description

Associative containers allow fast retrieval of data based on keys.

Each container type is parameterized on a `Key` type, and an ordering relation used to sort the elements of the container.

There should be more text here.

All associative containers must meet certain requirements, summarized in tables.
